Vintage Longines Automatic for project
Model & Functionality: This automatic Longines watch stands out with its operational excellence and unique aesthetic features. The hands are notably original, beautifully crafted in silver, matching the elegant silver dial.
Dial & Indexes: The dial hosts four prominent indexes that extend outward, creating a striking 3D effect that enhances the visual depth of the watch face. Other hour markers at 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, and 11 o'clock are represented by small dots, some of which have lost their luminescent material due to age. Despite needing a cleaning, the dial remains beautiful and distinctive.
Case: The watch case is in good condition; however, there is a notable modification: a hole has been made in the back of the case to facilitate crown removal. A plug has been fitted to prevent moisture and debris from entering, but this is an important factor to consider for maintenance and durability.
Movement: The watch maintains good timekeeping accuracy, but for optimal performance and daily use, a service check or repair might be necessary to ensure continued precision and quality.
Crown: The crown is in good condition, functioning well, though it lacks the Longines logo, which might be a consideration for collectors.
Bracelet: Please note that the bracelet is not included with this watch. The watch will be shipped alone, and this should be considered if a complete set is desired.
Additional Information: The watch is sold as-is. Please take the time to thoroughly review the photos provided. I have not taken pictures of the movement as I lack the tools to open the case. If you need more photos or details, do not hesitate to contact me.
Sales Note: This Longines watch is a remarkable piece with unique features that will surely impress. However, it does come with considerations regarding its condition and modifications. Buy with full awareness of its current state.
